  3. # When you move, remove or rename generated files, you probably also update
  4. # .gitignore and cleaning rules in the Makefile. This is the right thing
  5. # to do. However, people usually do 'git pull', 'git bisect', etc. without
  6. # running 'make clean'. Then, the stale generated files are left over, often
  7. # causing build issues.
  8. #
  9. # Also, 'git status' shows such stale build artifacts as untracked files.
  10. # What is worse, some people send a wrong patch to get them back to .gitignore
  11. # without checking the commit history.
  12. #
  13. # So, when you (re)move generated files, please move the cleaning rules from
  14. # the Makefile to this script. This is run before Kbuild starts building
  15. # anything, so people will not be annoyed by such garbage files.

  17. # This script is not intended to grow endlessly. Rather, it is a temporary scrap
  18. # yard. Stale files stay in this file for a while (for some release cycles?),
  19. # then will be really dead and removed from the code base entirely.
  20. # moved to security/selinux/genheaders
